or *geee*? 🙄 Google seems to want a piece of the IM cake. Mja, can’t blame them, they don’t want to feel left out I guess ;). I read about it some time ago. A colleague told me today, the first version seems to be released. Google Talk. Right…. maybe, people will start asking for each others gmail account instead of their MSN account.

Posting spree
Heh, quite some posts for a first day. Beginner’s motivation, I guess 😉

Today I discovered there finally is a platform-independent version of vnc2swf!! Vnc2swf is a tool which enables one to capture (part of) the desktop directly into an SWF file through a VNC server.

To wordpress or not?
That was the question that delayed me in starting a blog 🙂 The alternative would have been Nucleus. It has a good reputation AND it’s Belgian 😉 Still, I went for WordPress. At least, for now. I have already some experience with it, and it seems extensible, so why not. To be sure, I first looked up whether it would be possible to import the wordpress posts easily into Nucleus. It seems it can be done.
Finally…..
For some time already, I felt the need to share my little techy things with the world from time to time. Now it has finally happened: the conception of matties blog.
In this blog, I plan to share some daily ‘techy’ rants. Things I’m surprised of, things I want everyone to know (because they should ;)), things that really frustrated me, things I put together… As a side effect, I have a log for myself to find things back later 😉
Hope you Enjoy
